Keeping your data safe and available 24x7x365.

Instant backups are essential for any business, individual, or student who wishes to mitigate the risks associated with data loss. Life happens. It is inevitable that you will run into a situation sooner or later where you will need to recover very important data that you have somehow lost. Millions of people and businesses across the planet have become dependent upon the electronic storage of data. We have come to take instant access to information for granted. Whether it is a Word document, an Excel spreadsheet, a Powerpoint presentation, your personal music collection, pictures you have taken with a digital camera, or practically any other type of electronic data, we have come to expect that we can access this information at all times.

But what happens if you accidentally delete a file that you later realize that you still needed? What happens if you edit a Word document but wish to revert back to a previous version of it? What happens if your computer’s hard drive crashes, and you need to recover all of the data that was on it? In any of these types of situations, having the ability to quickly and easily retrieve and recover your lost data can make or brake your financial, academic, or personal life in profound ways. And that’s where instant backups come in handy.

Thanks to cloud computing, instant backups is no longer something reserved for large corporations with huge IT budgets. Anyone can leverage and harness the power of instant backups, including personal home computer users. Not too long ago, backups could only be taken if you had specialized hardware. The backups had to be taken either onto a tape drive, a CD or DVD drive, and required technical expertise to manage an administer the backup software. But all that has changed, now that having access to high speed Internet is a staple of modern civilization.

Cloud computing means that your data is stored on computers remotely located across the Internet, at a third-party data hosting provider that specializes in data warehousing, storage, and retrieval. In other words, you can have your data safely and securely backed up to computers managed by a company that specializes in online instant backups, so that you don’t have to deal with the hassle of data management, you don’t have to worry about data storage disk space limitations, you don’t have to worry about maintaining costly and complex data backup management software, and you can retrieve your backups instantly from anywhere across the Internet.

Instant backups enable you to take snapshots of your computer’s hard drive in real time, as you do your work on your computer. The backups are taken in the background, without any action needing to be taken on your part. By installing specialized software on your computer that runs in the background, it constantly monitors your system’s hard drive for any new files, any files that have been modified, and any files that have been deleted, and it takes real-time backups of this data.
